Somehow we got here, all in this room
Well, it's so filled with bliss, and so filled with doom
We’re all dying together

Somehow we're laughing, and carrying on
When we know in an instant, it all could be gone
We're all dying here together

Life don’t cost nothing, but your sweet time
And you know you'd be spending it anyway
So hold every minute, like it's your last dime
For the good lord could take it from you anyday

Sometimes I think that I'm the only one
Who fears every second before it's begun
We're all dying together

Sometimes I think that I'm the only one
Who looks to the sky and can't find the sun
We’re all dying here together

Life don’t cost nothing, but your sweet time
And you know you'd be spending it anyway
So hold every minute, like it’s your last dime
For the good lord could take it from you anyday

Someday the dim lights of our night life will fade
With the sand in the ashtray, we'll be tossed away
We're all dying together

Someday the comfort of kinship we knew
Will all disappear down that dark avenue
We're all dying alone
